This is a very clever idea. It brings to mind all kinds of phrases, too; "Our love grows day by day", "You're growing on me", "You're growing up much too fast", etc. I always like to have the greeting inside a card have a relationship to the front.

Melmel this is so goodgood. Okay, I'm probably very obtuse but give me a step by step on this because I think I'm making instructions up in my head that are alot harder than they need to be. Pretty please with spy sugar on top? Darth

Directions: First ink up POTS ONLY with your marker, and stamp out three times (reinking each time). Clean stamp VERY well, and then start out with the littlest plants by inking up only the TOPS of the trees and stamping above the first pots, then ink again a little farther down the stamp this time for the second set of pots, and finally the entire tree. Stampamajig insures perfect placement, but you may be able to eyeball it, I did and got lucky on this one. If it happens to be floating above it a little you can fill i in to connect the trunk with your fine point.
I like to do this with the tiny topiaries in Simple Somethings also, as well as inking up only the small topiary pots and then placing the flowers from Simple Somethings in them instead the trees.
